Yemen – Arrest of United Nations staff (25 January 2025)

Share

France firmly condemns the new wave of arbitrary arrests of United Nations staff in Yemen by the Houthis.

It demands the immediate, unconditional release of all staff from the United Nations, non-governmental organizations and diplomatic missions who have been arbitrarily detained by the Houthis. These detentions are undermining the implementation of the aid the Yemeni people need and thus helping to aggravate the humanitarian crisis in Yemen.

France reaffirms its full support for the United Nations’ action in Yemen.
